The 1st Annual OktoberQuest Was a Success!
The 1st annual OktoberQuest - Northside Bicycle Brewery Tour, was an undoubted success. On September 29th, 2018, the sold out event guided 50 riders throughout the Northside to taste delicious samples from local breweries. Thanks to Penn Brewery, Spring Hill Brewing, Threadbare Cider House, Bier's Pub, and Allegheny City Brewing for participating! The event was co-organized by NSLC and Walk/Ride Northside, the NSLC bike/ped advocacy committee.
